Ah, the beta does report unsupported protocol:

$  ./darcs get ssh://ssh.galois.com/darcs-repos/haskell-jvm-bridge/

darcs failed:  Not a repository:
ssh://ssh.galois.com/darcs-repos/haskell-jvm-bridge (Failed to
download URL ssh://ssh.galois.com/darcs-repos/haskell-jvm-bridge/_darcs/inventory:
Unsupported protocol)

That's definitely an improvement over the 2.4.4 behavior I'm seeing :).

(as an aside, I did eventually find issue 1575, but the search box on
the top-right is quite useless for that sort of thing)
